STUCK!

Don't know if you remember...I posted a thread a month ago about a less than 3 acre retention pond. Thanks to you guys I won the job.

On to the problem. It's a retention pond. I'm by myself. 48" Exmark Hydro. I sunk! No way to get it out myself. I knew it was wet in some areas, but this spot got me by suprise.

Thank God one of my friends drove by and gave me a hand (after a good ripping on, of course).

What's the best way to pull a mower out? I was just about ready to run and get a chain and/or a strap and drive my truck over to pull it (it was close to the road). Can you put a chain or strap around the spindle, and not damage anything?

I mow a few of these ...and getting stuck (god I hate weed wacking around this sucker!!) happens ....just don't sink her ...any ways I use a 60" ztr ....and my walker pulled her with the left tire up to the top of rim in soft mud .... just a long rope around the front caster ..;->

Last weekend I got my Great Dane Scamper stuck in a 3 foot deep canal. I called my budy who used his Surfer to try to pull me out. It didn't work. I started the mower and put it in reverse and pulled while my budy pushed. We got it out.
